Atmosphere
During the summer it is mostly little kids and u cant surf between the flags so it is harder to find a good spot but the life guards go home at 4 so after that its all good. In the fall this spot is epic.

- I don't know what the last guy is talking about. this place is def not for a fish. I brought my quad fin here and spun out of control because the drop is so steep here. bring your short board, and our balls because this is one of the steepest breaks on the island i ever surfed.
